Home in the Earth | 5.1.2 Waterproofing Test 2 @SimonHomeintheEarth | Uploaded September 2014 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
Since the waterproofing we used on our basement walls (proteshield from New Look International) was not officially tested by the manufacturer to qualify as waterproofing. The building inspector was concerned that it would not be sufficient to protect our home from water. We decided to conduct some tests to evaluate it for ourselves. This is the second test. We filled two bowls with water, one had been waterproofed, the other not. Then we filmed what happened.
